40 Cdo RM Haifa 1948
4 Attachment(s)
Some extracts from an interesting booklet written by the Int Sect, 40 Cdo RM in late 1948 covering the unit's tour in Palestine/Israel Jan - Jun 48. The use of the main armament (37mm) of their Staghound Armoured Cars in the anti-sniper role was interesting as was the Jewish terrorists' use of the VBIED. 40 Cdo RM was the last British unit to leave Haifa.

Thanks for that Mike, most interesting ... tempting to say 'What goes around, comes around' .
